2012 Outlook: Solid/Safe Pick

Last updated on Aug-02-2012 by Ben Standig

Now that speed merchants and big wide receiver types populate the tight end position, Witten's plodding style is truly old school. His fantasy numbers remain mainstream. The sturdy Witten led the Cowboys with79 receptions and 942 yards, though both totals represented his lowest in five seasons. Though just outside the top five, his ability to stay active makes him a safe and steady TE choice.

8.04 KFFL.com - I was quite surprised to see Witten available at this point. PPR scoring makes him a steal, especially since the Cowboys don't have a bona fide No. 3 receiver to steal some looks.

9.12 FantasySharks.com - I'll gamble. Like any player with potential spleen surgery as a negative they should fall in a draft but right now, nothing is definite beyond him resting and then evaluating. My gamble is he misses a game or two tops and then I have a top TE contributing to my team for the remainder of the season.
